If i run it at 28w as recommended then the water level line is approx 2" inside skimmer neck. See video https://youtu.be/uXPQceRB0g0

Else if i run at 30w the water level line is were the cup and body connect. But the skim is wet like weak tea
Because your skimmer is way oversized for your tank size and load, you will need to raise the water level in the skimmer about 1" or maybe a little more to keep it consistent at 28 watts which is where I recommend you keep it. Close the wedge pipe a bit more or raise the sump level a little at a time until you have the water level raised inside the skimmer so that it transitions from water to foam about 1/3 the way up the neck instead of the 1/2" to 1" above the white collar where it's at now.
